Hear, gentlemen, ladies, and all mankind:
Money is good and a girl might be better,
But good strong blows are delights to the mind.
There, standing on the cart,
He sang it from his heart.”

I only know that summer sang in me
A little while, that in me sings no more.”

“Money is good and a girl might be better,
No matter what happens and who takes the fall,
But a good strong causeMthe rope gave a jerk there,
No more sang he, for his throat was too small;
But he kicked before he died,
He did it out of pride.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
